Who the Directory Serves
Two audiences meet on Notary123. Clients need a notary now — for a loan closing, a power of attorney, an apostille, or a last-minute travel letter — and they search by location and service. Notaries need a business listing that turns those searches into booked appointments. A directory listing is the bridge: clients find you at the moment of need, and you choose exactly which areas and services you want to be found for.
How Listing Your Notary Business Works
Advertising on Notary123 is a directory listing plus lead delivery — set up once, then it works continuously.
- Create your profile with your services, credentials, photo, and bio
- Set your home ZIP code and service radius, or add statewide coverage where you're commissioned
- Your listing appears in the public directory and on our state, city, and ZIP code pages
- When a client submits a notarization request in your area, matching notaries are notified instantly
- Claim the requests you want — the client's contact details unlock per lead
What Your Profile Includes
Your profile is your public business page on Notary123. Everything on it is information you provide and control:
- Your business name or personal name, photo, and bio
- The services you offer — general notarization, loan signing, real estate, apostille support, mobile, and remote online
- Languages you work in and years of experience
- Commission number and expiration date, shown to clients as verification
- Your service area — the ZIP codes and states you cover
- Optional booking link (Calendly) and a link to your own website
Verification: What the Badge Means
Profiles display a "Verified — Not Rated" badge when commission details are on file with us. Verification means we have confirmed the notary's commission information — it is not a review score, a rating, or a customer ranking, and it is not something you can pay to improve. We verify, not rate.
Membership Plans and Pricing
Both plans are annual memberships that cover your directory listing, profile, and lead alerts:
- Basic Listing — $49.99/year: listed in the public directory, unlimited ZIP code coverage, lead alerts for every area you service, access to the client lead pool, and your profile page
- Featured Listing — $99.99/year: everything in Basic, plus top placement in directory results, a "Featured" badge on your profile, and homepage placement. Featured placement is a paid upgrade and is labeled as such wherever it appears.
What Membership Includes vs. What Costs Extra
Your membership covers the listing itself — profile, directory placement, and alerts when matching client requests come in. When you decide to take on a client, purchasing that lead (unlocking the client's contact details) is a separate, pay-per-lead charge — currently $10 per lead, with the exact price always shown in your dashboard before you buy. There is no ad budget, no bidding war, and no charge for leads you don't claim.
What We Don't Promise
We can't guarantee customers, income, or search rankings — no honest directory can. What you get is visibility in the areas you choose to serve, real client requests routed to your dashboard, and a profile you control. Results depend on your market, your services, and how fast you respond to requests.
